Research has shown that providing therapy dogs in an educational environment can support students’ social-emotional learning, improve school attendance, increase self-confidence, reduce anxiety, and help students build better relationship skills with peers and adults. Our Oxford Wildcat Pack pups greet students and staff in the hallways, visit classrooms, attend events, and give lots of extra love to students when they need it. 

For those wishing to donate for the ongoing expenses of the pack, donations are being accepted here.

Thank you to all of our partners who have supported and continue to support our OWP including 4 Pawz Strong, Parker Veterinary Hospital in Oxford for generously providing free veterinary care for our entire OWP, KT Grooming for complimentary grooming of all of our pups, and Pet Supplies Plus for sponsoring some food!
